    Triple Yolk

    We got one last weekend. I think one of our Rhode Island’s likes laying extra large eggs!

    Injured eye?

    Not really any update. No improvement with compress and antibiotics. I’m still not 100% certain it’s coryza. Another group said the black area was her eye Andi’s she most likely got it caught on something and that it needed to be popped back in or taken to the vet. There are no vets on my area...

    Injured eye?

    I didn’t have chamomile tea, but I did use a warm rag Connor’ compress for a bit. That’s how I was able to get the pus to release. I still have her quarantined away from the others. She is still eating and drinking normally no less than usual.

    Injured eye?

    Just a small amount from the front area that looks wrinkled now. It wasn’t hard. Yes we have been doing both The Terramycin and the fish mox.

    Injured eye?

    Could she have possibly been bite by a blackwidow? Or something of the sort? Or got it poked by something? I keep looking at the Coryza and nothing I’ve seen looks anything like this… 😔

    Injured eye?

    Update: I attempted to try to pop anything out and was able to get some slight liquid pus/mucus out from near the beak. The rest of it seems pretty stuck on. I didn’t want to pull to hard since occasionally she made a little noise as if I was hurting her. I am attaching photos of after the...

    Also, if this is in fact coryza, from an article I was just reading, the entire flock is infected now? What about introducing new chicks?

    Injured eye?

    I will give it another go. Just the way it looks is that it is her eye already that’s popped out so it makes me second guess popping it lol

    Injured eye?

    She looks to be doing slightly better. She’s only been in the antibiotics for 2 days and ill continuing to put the Terramycin on her eye. I am not able to get anything to pop out of it however. I still feel like it’s her eye but I’ve tried to apply slight pressure to see if anything would pop...

    Injured eye?

    Perfect! Thank you all for the information. Will be attempting the mucus removal as soon as we get home from work and I’ll pick up some antibiotics in the meantime. Does anyone have a dosage amount to use?

    Injured eye?

    There does seem to be some mucus in the front area now. I don’t see anything in the nostrils but at the time when I noticed the eye, from the same side nostril looked like she had a bloody nose persay. I’ve been applying the Terramycin and when I apply it, the blackish area feels hard to touch...

    Injured eye?

    Also, how does one get this if that is the case?

    Injured eye?

    I can see doing that but the thing that worries me is the black portion around the eye. Is that a part of the eye? I don’t want to pop the eye out… 😳

    Injured eye?

    I don’t have any on hand as of yet. I checked the local feed store and they only had fish antibiotics. Will that work?

    Injured eye?

    Hi all! So we are new at having chickens. Everything has been smooth sailing for the past 3 months. Chickens are happy and healthy. When closing up their yard the other night however, I noticed one of our Rhode Island Reds was laying in the nesting box and not in the coop with the others. Upon...
